HP 8935 Test Station

Here is the Agilent / HP 8935   unit. This unit was originally made for CDMA Base Station Testing but can also be an excellent Service Monitor.  The following is taken from the web, as there is no documentation available for this unit:

HP had 2 different types of  8935 units. One was the E6380A and it included CDMA Tests. It’s a well built rugged design with an “electro-luminicent” display. The membrane type keyboard is helpful in restricting moisture from getting into the unit. The test connectors are all on the side of the unit. This unit is similar but not exactly like the HP 8920B units. It includes similar features and screens like the : RF analyzer, AF Analyzer, RF Generator, Encoder, Decoder, Spectrum Analyzer / Tracking Generator. Also included is  Power Meter, Sinad and Distortion meters, Full Duplex operation, AC/ DC Voltmeter, Self Diagnostic Tests, and Configure Screens. It has 2 AF generators useful for generating 1000Hz tone and CTCSS tones at the same time, 2 uV “off the air” sensitive receiver, AM, FM and SSB modes, 75 Watt continuous or 125 Watt intermittent power input, antenna, duplex and RF I/O ports. It will save and recall screen setups with its internal memory. It uses the more common PCMCIA SRAM cards to install / remove data.
